Description
Delivery Chute for Sinter Material The invention relates to a delivery chute for delivering sinter material onto a sinter cooler and to a method for delivering sinter material from a sinter belt onto a sinter cooler.
In order to cool a hot granular sinter material produced in a sintering apparatus, it is delivered onto a moving sinter cooler. There, cooling is carried out using a machine-generated air flow which is fed from below through the hot granular sinter material placed on the cooling bed of the sinter cooler.
The particle size distribution of the granular sinter material on the cooling bed has an effect on the efficiency of the cooling, since the particle size distribution determines the resistance opposing the air flow. The effect of a resistance having a different strength in different regions of the sinter material is that the air flow does not flow, or flows only to a lesser extent, through areas with an increased resistance and the sinter material is therefore not uniformly cooled. The effect of nonuniform cooling is that different grains of the sinter material discharged from the sinter cooler have different temperatures. Grains with temperatures above a desired discharge temperature can cause damage to subsequent apparatus processing the cooled sinter material, for example conveyor belts and sizing screens.
The horizontal and vertical particle size distribution in the sinter material on the cooling bed of the sinter cooler is influenced by the delivery chute through which the crushed sinter material is delivered from the sinter belt onto the sinter cooler. A conventional delivery chute comprises a shaft delimited by side walls, with an inlet opening lying at the top for introducing the granular sinter material to be cooled, and an outlet opening lying at the bottom, through which the granular sinter material to be cooled is delivered onto the cooling bed of the sinter cooler. The outlet opening lies between side walls of the shaft and a downwardly inclined base plate of the delivery chute. Inside the shaft, a downwardly inclined inlet guide plate, by which a sliding movement extending obliquely downward is imparted to the granular material introduced into the shaft, extends on the inlet opening. Between the inlet guide plate and side walls of the delivery chute, an opening is left through which the sinter material can move following the force of gravity in the direction of the outlet opening. Below this opening, a downwardly inclined deflection plate is arranged in the shaft.
Since the deflection plate has a different inclination direction to the inlet guide plate, the sinter material total flow which flows through the delivery chute has a sliding movement with a different direction imparted to it by the deflection plate. Between the deflection plate and the delivery chute shaft's side wall lying opposite the lower end of the deflection plate, an opening remains through which the sinter material can move following the force of gravity in the direction of the outlet opening. The base plate, whose inclination direction is different to that of the deflection plate, is usually arranged below this opening. When the deflection plate and the base plate respectively have opposite inclination directions to one another, then it is known that the sinter material total flow which leaves the delivery chute through the outlet opening has a particle size distribution gradient extending over the thickness of the outgoing sinter material total flow owing to segregation phenomena on the sinter-material filling of the delivery chute taking place when it passes through the delivery chute. This can be utilized in order for a moving cooling bed of the sinter cooler, lying below the outlet opening, to be loaded so that the particle size of the sinter material in the layer on the cooling bed predominantly decreases from the bottom upward as seen over the width of the cooling bed, i.e. there is a particle size distribution gradient over the thickness of the layer. A
decrease in the particle size from the bottom upward allows efficient cooling, since a cooling air flow which is delivered from below is thereby opposed with less resistance when it enters the layer. Furthermore, more heat is stored in the particles of the sinter material with a larger particle size than in particles of the sinter material with a smaller particle size, for which reason initial contact of the cooling air flow with particles of a large particle size leads to more efficient cooling.
A disadvantage with conventional apparatus, however, is that the gradient of the particle size distribution extends very nonuniformly over the total width of the moving cooling bed, or is partly absent, in particular when the sinter belt moves substantially perpendicularly to the movement direction of the sinter cooler at the delivery opening. This is because coarser-grained and therefore heavier particles of the sinter material have a greater kinetic energy in the direction of the movement direction of the sinter belt than smaller particles, and they correspondingly strike the inlet guide plate further away from the sinter belt. The coarser-grained material arrives correspondingly more concentrated in the region of the corresponding edge of the sinter material total flow in the delivery chute. This inhomogeneous distribution furthermore still exists on the cooling bed of the sinter cooler, for which reason uniform cooling of the sinter material by the cooling air flow is not ensured because the resistance presented to the air flow by the sinter material varies over the width of the cooling bed.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for delivering sinter material from a sinter belt onto a sinter cooler by means of a delivery chute, and a delivery chute, with which an improved uniformity of the particle size distribution of sinter material on the cooling bed of a sinter cooler can be achieved in comparison with the prior art.
This object is achieved by a method for delivering sinter material from a sinter belt onto a sinter cooler by means of a delivery chute, wherein the sinter material leaving the sinter belt is introduced into the delivery chute, optionally after a crushing process, then the sinter material is divided by distributor plates into at least two sinter material subflows flowing in different directions, each sinter material subflow having its flow direction dictated by the distributor plate over which it flows, and wherein the flow directions of the sinter material subflows are represented by subflow flow-direction vectors and, for the angle made by the subflow flow-direction vectors with a horizontal plane, with angles measured in the same direction, for a pair of directly neighboring sinter material subflows the subflow flow-direction vector of one sinter material subflow makes an obtuse angle with the horizontal plane and the subflow flow-direction vector of the other sinter material subflow makes an acute angle with the horizontal plane then the sinter material subflows are combined into a sinter material total flow flowing obliquely downward, the flow direction of which is represented by a total flow flow-direction vector, the horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors being substantially perpendicular to the horizontal principal component of the total flow flow-direction vector, and the sinter material subflows being guided into the lateral edges of the sinter material total flow as seen in the flow direction of the sinter material total flow, and then the sinter material total flow is delivered onto a sinter cooler after at least one reversal of its flow direction by the base plate of the delivery chute.
According to the invention, the sinter material introduced into the delivery chute is initially divided into two sinter material subflows flowing in different directions. This separation is carried out by delivering the sinter material onto distributor plates provided with a different inclination downward, which respectively dictate the flow direction for the subflows. The flow directions of the sinter material subflows are represented by flow-direction vectors. The flow directions of the sinter material subflows differ in that for directly neighboring sinter material subflows, different types of angles are formed between the flow-direction vectors and a horizontal plane. One of the angles is an obtuse angle, and the other is an acute angle. The angles are measured in the same direction.
The sinter material subflows are combined into a sinter material total flow, the combining being carried out so that the subflows are guided in the direction of the two lateral edges of the sinter material total flow, at least one subflow respectively being guided in the direction of each lateral edge. The sinter material total flow, obtained by combining the sinter material subflows, flows obliquely downward. Its lateral edges, as viewed in the flow direction, essentially bear on side walls of the shaft of the delivery chute.
The flow direction of the sinter material total flow, obtained by combining the sinter material subflows, is represented by a total flow flow-direction vector.
The subflow flow-direction vectors and the total flow flow-direction vector are respectively the sum of vectors following the three coordinate axes in a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system, two of which lie in a horizontal plane and one of which is perpendicular to this plane. The subflow flow-direction vectors and the total flow flow-direction vector lie in a plane containing one of the horizontally extending coordinate axes and the vertically extending coordinate axis.
That of the vectors, following the three coordinate axes and lying in the horizontal plane, which has the greater magnitude, is referred to as the horizontal principal component of a subflow or total flow flow-direction vector. According to the invention, the horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors are substantially perpendicular to the horizontal principal component of the total flow flow-direction vector. The term substantially perpendicular is intended to mean an angle range of 90 +/- 25 , preferably 90 +/- 20 , particularly preferably 90 +/- 15 , more particularly preferably 90 +/- 100, and most especially preferably 90 +/-50. The angle actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
The method steps according to the invention reduce the effect, caused by a nonuniform distribution of grains of different particle sizes prevailing in the sinter material introduced into the delivery chute, on the particle size distribution in the sinter material total flow. This is because depending on the sinter material subflow with which sinter material introduced into the delivery chute flows, it is guided to one or the other lateral edge of the sinter material total flow. As a result of this, in contrast to the prior art, a particularly concentrated particle size in a subregion of the flow of sinter material introduced into the delivery chute does not accumulate on a corresponding lateral edge of the sinter material total flow in the delivery chute. Here, the term lateral edge is to be understood as meaning that the sinter material total flow obtained by combining the sinter material subflows is considered in its flow direction, the sinter material total flow having two edges, namely a right edge and a left edge.
The delivery of the sinter material total flow subsequently taking place onto the sinter cooler is carried out after at least one reversal of its flow direction by the base plate of the delivery chute.
The horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors of two directly neighboring subf lows preferably have opposite directions, that is to say they lie at an angle of 180 to one another. They may, however, also lie at a smaller angle to one another, for instance 175 , 170 , 165 , 1600, 155 , i.e. in an angle range of from 155 to 180 .
According to a preferred embodiment, the movement directions of the sinter material subflows are inclined downward to the same extent. They may, however, also be inclined downward to a different extent, in which case the angle of inclination may differ by up to 15 , for instance 5 , 10 . The angle actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
The present application also provides a delivery chute for delivering sinter material onto a sinter cooler, comprising a shaft delimited by side walls having an inlet opening at the top, which is bounded by the side walls of the shaft and/or by bounding plates which start from the side walls of the shaft and extend into the space bounded by the shaft, and an outlet opening at the bottom, at least one deflection plate arranged inside the shaft and optionally inclined downward, which is connected to two mutually opposite side walls of the shaft and a side wall connecting them, and a base plate optionally inclined downward, which is connected to two mutually opposite side walls and a side wall connecting them, there being a gap between at least one of the side walls of the shaft and the deflection plate, and the outlet opening being located between the base plate and the lower end of at least one side wall, the base plate being directly arranged vertically below the gap between the side wall and the deflection plate directly neighboring the base plate and arranged vertically over it, characterized in that a distributor device is arranged between the inlet opening and the first deflection plate inside the shaft, as seen from the inlet opening in the vertical direction, comprising at least two downwardly inclined distributor plates which are inclined downward so that, for the angles measured in the same direction between a horizontal plane and the distributor plates, for a pair of directly neighboring distributor plates one of the distributor plates makes an obtuse angle with the horizontal plane and the other of the distributor plates makes an acute angle with the horizontal plane, and wherein each of the distributor plates - as seen from its higher-lying end in the direction of its lower-lying end -extends in the direction of one of the side edges, optionally with a profile inclined downward, of the deflection plate directly arranged vertically below it.
The method according to the invention can be carried out with the delivery chute according to the invention.
The shaft of the delivery chute according to the invention is delimited by side walls and has an inlet opening and an outlet opening. The sinter material is introduced through the inlet opening, and it is discharged through the outlet opening.
At least one deflection plate is arranged inside the shaft. It is connected to two mutually opposite side walls of the shaft, and to a side wall connecting the two side walls. The lateral edges of the deflection plate, which respectively extend along the shaft's two mutually opposite side walls to which the deflection plate is connected, are referred to as side edges of the deflection plate. The deflection plate is preferably arranged inclined, and specifically inclined downward. In this case the lateral edges of the deflection plate as seen from the higher-lying end in the direction of its lower-lying end, which are referred to as side edges, extend with an inclination downward.
Alternatively, however, the deflection plate may be arranged without an inclination, i.e. in a horizontal plane. Between at least one of the side walls of the shaft and the deflection plate, there is a gap through which the sinter material contained in the delivery chute can move following the force of gravity downward in the direction of the outlet opening. This gap is preferably located at the lower-lying end of the deflection plate, for example between the lower-lying end of the deflection plate and the side wall which lies opposite the side wall connected to the higher-lying end of the deflection plate. If the deflection plate is not inclined, the gap is preferably located between the deflection plate's end not connected to a side wall of the shaft and the side wall lying opposite this end.
The outlet opening lies between the base plate and the lower end of at least one side wall. The base plate is connected to two mutually opposite side walls and a side wall connecting them. The base plate is directly arranged vertically below the gap between the side wall and the deflection plate directly neighboring the base plate and arranged vertically over the base plate. The base plate is preferably arranged inclined, and specifically inclined downward. If both the base plate and the deflection plate are inclined, the base plate is inclined in a different direction to the deflection plate. The outlet opening does not lie vertically, as seen from the inlet opening, directly below the gap between the side wall and the deflection plate directly neighboring the base plate and arranged vertically over the base plate.
In this way, the movement direction of the sinter material total flow is again changed at least once by the base plate after passing through the gap, before it emerges from the delivery chute through the outlet opening.
Irrespective of whether the deflection plate and/or base plate are inclined or not inclined, the method according to the invention proceeds in the same way since, on a non-inclined deflection plate and/or base plate, a pile of material is formed whose surface is inclined as a function of the resting angle of the sinter material. The sinter material total flow thus also flows obliquely downward along this surface in the case of a non-inclined deflection plate and/or base plate, as it does in the case of an inclined deflection plate and/or base plate.
According to the invention, a distributor device is arranged inside the shaft between the inlet opening and the first deflection plate inside the shaft, as seen from the inlet opening. It comprises at least two downwardly inclined distributor plates. The distributor plates are inclined downward so that, for the angle between a horizontal plane and a distributor plate, for a pair of directly neighboring distributor plates one of the distributor plates makes an obtuse angle with the horizontal plane and the other of the distributor plates makes an acute angle with the horizontal plane. The angles between the horizontal plane and the distributor plates are in this case measured in the same direction. The individual distributor plates or all the distributor plates are preferably connected to a side wall of the shaft at their higher-lying end and extend - as seen from its higher-lying end in the direction of their lower-lying end - in the direction of one of the side edges, preferably with a profile inclined downward, of the deflection plate directly arranged vertically below it.
The deflection plates may have the same width everywhere over their lengthwise extent from their upper end to their lower end, or they may become narrower toward the lower end.
Preferably, the vertical projections of the distributor plates onto a horizontal plane lie inside the perpendicular projection of the first deflection plate, as seen from the inlet opening, onto the same horizontal plane.
The distributor plates are thus not arranged over the gap between the deflection plate and the side wall. This ensures that incoming sinter material cannot be discharged from the delivery chute without deflection by the distributor plates.
According to one embodiment, the distributor plates are inclined downward to the same extent. This means that the magnitudes of the angles, by which the longitudinal axes of the distributor plates are inclined downward relative to the horizontal, are the same. They may however also be inclined downward to a different extent, in which case the angle of inclination may differ by up to 15 , for instance 5 , 100. The angle actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
Neighboring distributor plates are inclined in different directions. According to a preferred embodiment, for a pair of directly neighboring distributor plates, the two distributor plates of the pair are inclined in mutually opposite directions. This means that in relation to a reference point, the right-hand end of one distributor plate lies higher than its left-hand end, i.e. the distributor plate is inclined downward from right to left. A directly neighboring distributor plate has a left-hand end lying higher, so that it is inclined downward from left to right. The two distributor plates of the pair are then inclined in mutually opposite directions.
It is preferable for the higher-lying ends of the distributor plates to lie at the same position with respect to the vertical lengthwise extent of the shaft. They may, however, also be located at different positions with respect to the vertical lengthwise extent of the shaft. The position actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
The relationships indicated in the method according to the invention between the horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors and the horizontal principal component of the total flow flow-direction vector apply at least so long as the total flow lies on the first deflection plate in the vertical direction, as seen from the inlet opening.
The present invention will be explained below with the aid of a schematic figure of an exemplary embodiment.
Figure 1 shows an oblique view of a longitudinal section through a delivery chute according to the invention.
The shaft of the delivery chute is delimited by side walls la, lb, the side wall lc consisting of the parts lc' and lc", and a further side wall which is not represented owing to the longitudinal section and extends parallel to the side wall lb.
For better clarity, the side wall lb is shaded. The inlet opening 2 is provided at the top, and an outlet opening 3 is provided at the bottom. The inlet opening is bounded by bounding plates 4a, 4b, 4c starting from the side walls, and a further bounding plate which is not represented owing to the longitudinal section. The deflection plate 5 is arranged inside the shaft. It is inclined downward and connected to the side wall lb, the side wall (not shown) parallel to lb, and the parts lc' and lc". The lateral edges of the deflection plate as seen from the higher-lying end of the deflection plate in the direction of its lower-lying end, which are referred to as side edges, of the deflection plate extend with an inclination downward. Between the side wall la and the deflection plate 5, there is a gap. A base plate 6 is arranged directly below the gap vertically. The base plate 6 is inclined downward, the direction of the inclination of the base plate 6 differing from the direction of the inclination of the deflection plate 5;
while the base plate 6 represented in Figure 1 is inclined downward from right to left, the deflection plate 5 is inclined downward from left to right. The base plate is connected to the side wall lb, the side wall (not shown) parallel to lb, and the side wall la. The outlet opening 3 is located between the lower end of the part lc" of the side wall lc and the base plate 6.
A distributor device, comprising the two directly neighboring distributor plates 7a and 7b, is arranged between the inlet opening 2 and the deflection plate 5. The two distributor plates 7a and 7b are inclined downward. They become narrower toward their lower-lying end, as can be seen for the distributor plate 7b. The distributor plates 7a and 7b are inclined in different directions to one another, namely in mutually opposite directions. The two distributor plates 7a and 7b are inclined downward to the same extent. With a horizontal plane, for example passing through the distributor opening, the distributor plate 7a with a corresponding direction of the angle measurement makes an acute angle, while the distributor plate 7b with the same direction of the angle measurement makes an obtuse angle with the same horizontal plane. The distributor plate ,7b is connected to the side wall lb by its higher-lying end, while the distributor plate 7a is connected to the side wall (not shown) parallel thereto by its higher-lying end. Each of the distributor plates extends in the direction of one of the side edges, extending with a downward inclination, of the deflection plate 5. The distributor plate 7a extends in the direction of the side edge which neighbors the side wall lb, and the distributor plate 7b extends in the direction of the other side edge of the deflection plate 5. The distributor plates 7a and 7b are arranged so that their perpendicular projections onto a horizontal plane lie inside the perpendicular projections of the deflection plate 5 onto the same horizontal plane. The distributor plates 7a and 7b do not directly lie vertically over the gap between the deflection plate 5 and the side wall la.
Sinter material introduced into the delivery chute is divided by the two distributor plates 7a and 7b into two sinter material subflows which the flow with flow directions dictated by the distributor plates 7a and 7b in the direction of the side edges of the deflection plate. The sinter material subf lows leaving the distributor plates 7a and 7b are combined into a sinter material total flow, which flows down the deflection plate 5. The horizontal principal components of the total flow flow vector and the subflow flow-direction vectors are mutually perpendicular. A reversed flow direction is subsequently imparted to the sinter material total flow by the base plate, before the sinter material is delivered through the outlet opening 3 onto the sinter cooler (not shown).

In order to cool a hot granular sinter material produced in a sintering apparatus, it is delivered onto a moving sinter cooler. There, cooling is carried out using a machine-generated air flow which is fed from below through the hot granular sinter material placed on the cooling bed of the sinter cooler.
The particle size distribution of the granular sinter material on the cooling bed has an effect on the efficiency of the cooling, since the particle size distribution determines the resistance opposing the air flow. The effect of a resistance having a different strength in different regions of the sinter material is that the air flow does not flow, or flows only to a lesser extent, through areas with an increased resistance and the sinter material is therefore not uniformly cooled. The effect of nonuniform cooling is that different grains of the sinter material discharged from the sinter cooler have different temperatures. Grains with temperatures above a desired discharge temperature can cause damage to subsequent apparatus processing the cooled sinter material, for example conveyor belts and sizing screens.
The horizontal and vertical particle size distribution in the sinter material on the cooling bed of the sinter cooler is influenced by the delivery chute through which the crushed sinter material is delivered from the sinter belt onto the sinter cooler. A conventional delivery chute comprises a shaft delimited by side walls, with an inlet opening lying at the top for introducing the granular sinter material to be cooled, and an outlet opening lying at the bottom, through which the granular sinter material to be cooled is delivered onto the cooling bed of the sinter cooler. The outlet opening lies between side walls of the shaft and a downwardly inclined base plate of the delivery chute. Inside the shaft, a downwardly inclined inlet guide plate, by which a sliding movement extending obliquely downward is imparted to the granular material introduced into the shaft, extends on the inlet opening. Between the inlet guide plate and side walls of the delivery chute, an opening is left through which the sinter material can move following the force of gravity in the direction of the outlet opening. Below this opening, a downwardly inclined deflection plate is arranged in the shaft.
Since the deflection plate has a different inclination direction to the inlet guide plate, the sinter material total flow which flows through the delivery chute has a sliding movement with a different direction imparted to it by the deflection plate. Between the deflection plate and the delivery chute shaft's side wall lying opposite the lower end of the deflection plate, an opening remains through which the sinter material can move following the force of gravity in the direction of the outlet opening. The base plate, whose inclination direction is different to that of the deflection plate, is usually arranged below this opening. When the deflection plate and the base plate respectively have opposite inclination directions to one another, then it is known that the sinter material total flow which leaves the delivery chute through the outlet opening has a particle size distribution gradient extending over the thickness of the outgoing sinter material total flow owing to segregation phenomena on the sinter-material filling of the delivery chute taking place when it passes through the delivery chute. This can be utilized in order for a moving cooling bed of the sinter cooler, lying below the outlet opening, to be loaded so that the particle size of the sinter material in the layer on the cooling bed predominantly decreases from the bottom upward as seen over the width of the cooling bed, i.e. there is a particle size distribution gradient over the thickness of the layer. A
decrease in the particle size from the bottom upward allows efficient cooling, since a cooling air flow which is delivered from below is thereby opposed with less resistance when it enters the layer. Furthermore, more heat is stored in the particles of the sinter material with a larger particle size than in particles of the sinter material with a smaller particle size, for which reason initial contact of the cooling air flow with particles of a large particle size leads to more efficient cooling.
A disadvantage with conventional apparatus, however, is that the gradient of the particle size distribution extends very nonuniformly over the total width of the moving cooling bed, or is partly absent, in particular when the sinter belt moves substantially perpendicularly to the movement direction of the sinter cooler at the delivery opening. This is because coarser-grained and therefore heavier particles of the sinter material have a greater kinetic energy in the direction of the movement direction of the sinter belt than smaller particles, and they correspondingly strike the inlet guide plate further away from the sinter belt. The coarser-grained material arrives correspondingly more concentrated in the region of the corresponding edge of the sinter material total flow in the delivery chute. This inhomogeneous distribution furthermore still exists on the cooling bed of the sinter cooler, for which reason uniform cooling of the sinter material by the cooling air flow is not ensured because the resistance presented to the air flow by the sinter material varies over the width of the cooling bed.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for delivering sinter material from a sinter belt onto a sinter cooler by means of a delivery chute, and a delivery chute, with which an improved uniformity of the particle size distribution of sinter material on the cooling bed of a sinter cooler can be achieved in comparison with the prior art.
This object is achieved by a method for delivering sinter material from a sinter belt onto a sinter cooler by means of a delivery chute, wherein the sinter material leaving the sinter belt is introduced into the delivery chute, optionally after a crushing process, then the sinter material is divided by distributor plates into at least two sinter material subflows flowing in different directions, each sinter material subflow having its flow direction dictated by the distributor plate over which it flows, and wherein the flow directions of the sinter material subflows are represented by subflow flow-direction vectors and, for the angle made by the subflow flow-direction vectors with a horizontal plane, with angles measured in the same direction, for a pair of directly neighboring sinter material subflows the subflow flow-direction vector of one sinter material subflow makes an obtuse angle with the horizontal plane and the subflow flow-direction vector of the other sinter material subflow makes an acute angle with the horizontal plane then the sinter material subflows are combined into a sinter material total flow flowing obliquely downward, the flow direction of which is represented by a total flow flow-direction vector, the horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors being substantially perpendicular to the horizontal principal component of the total flow flow-direction vector, and the sinter material subflows being guided into the lateral edges of the sinter material total flow as seen in the flow direction of the sinter material total flow, and then the sinter material total flow is delivered onto a sinter cooler after at least one reversal of its flow direction by the base plate of the delivery chute.
According to the invention, the sinter material introduced into the delivery chute is initially divided into two sinter material subflows flowing in different directions. This separation is carried out by delivering the sinter material onto distributor plates provided with a different inclination downward, which respectively dictate the flow direction for the subflows. The flow directions of the sinter material subflows are represented by flow-direction vectors. The flow directions of the sinter material subflows differ in that for directly neighboring sinter material subflows, different types of angles are formed between the flow-direction vectors and a horizontal plane. One of the angles is an obtuse angle, and the other is an acute angle. The angles are measured in the same direction.
The sinter material subflows are combined into a sinter material total flow, the combining being carried out so that the subflows are guided in the direction of the two lateral edges of the sinter material total flow, at least one subflow respectively being guided in the direction of each lateral edge. The sinter material total flow, obtained by combining the sinter material subflows, flows obliquely downward. Its lateral edges, as viewed in the flow direction, essentially bear on side walls of the shaft of the delivery chute.
The flow direction of the sinter material total flow, obtained by combining the sinter material subflows, is represented by a total flow flow-direction vector.
The subflow flow-direction vectors and the total flow flow-direction vector are respectively the sum of vectors following the three coordinate axes in a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system, two of which lie in a horizontal plane and one of which is perpendicular to this plane. The subflow flow-direction vectors and the total flow flow-direction vector lie in a plane containing one of the horizontally extending coordinate axes and the vertically extending coordinate axis.
That of the vectors, following the three coordinate axes and lying in the horizontal plane, which has the greater magnitude, is referred to as the horizontal principal component of a subflow or total flow flow-direction vector. According to the invention, the horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors are substantially perpendicular to the horizontal principal component of the total flow flow-direction vector. The term substantially perpendicular is intended to mean an angle range of 90 +/- 25 , preferably 90 +/- 20 , particularly preferably 90 +/- 15 , more particularly preferably 90 +/- 100, and most especially preferably 90 +/-50. The angle actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
The method steps according to the invention reduce the effect, caused by a nonuniform distribution of grains of different particle sizes prevailing in the sinter material introduced into the delivery chute, on the particle size distribution in the sinter material total flow. This is because depending on the sinter material subflow with which sinter material introduced into the delivery chute flows, it is guided to one or the other lateral edge of the sinter material total flow. As a result of this, in contrast to the prior art, a particularly concentrated particle size in a subregion of the flow of sinter material introduced into the delivery chute does not accumulate on a corresponding lateral edge of the sinter material total flow in the delivery chute. Here, the term lateral edge is to be understood as meaning that the sinter material total flow obtained by combining the sinter material subflows is considered in its flow direction, the sinter material total flow having two edges, namely a right edge and a left edge.
The delivery of the sinter material total flow subsequently taking place onto the sinter cooler is carried out after at least one reversal of its flow direction by the base plate of the delivery chute.
The horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors of two directly neighboring subf lows preferably have opposite directions, that is to say they lie at an angle of 180 to one another. They may, however, also lie at a smaller angle to one another, for instance 175 , 170 , 165 , 1600, 155 , i.e. in an angle range of from 155 to 180 .
According to a preferred embodiment, the movement directions of the sinter material subflows are inclined downward to the same extent. They may, however, also be inclined downward to a different extent, in which case the angle of inclination may differ by up to 15 , for instance 5 , 10 . The angle actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
The present application also provides a delivery chute for delivering sinter material onto a sinter cooler, comprising a shaft delimited by side walls having an inlet opening at the top, which is bounded by the side walls of the shaft and/or by bounding plates which start from the side walls of the shaft and extend into the space bounded by the shaft, and an outlet opening at the bottom, at least one deflection plate arranged inside the shaft and optionally inclined downward, which is connected to two mutually opposite side walls of the shaft and a side wall connecting them, and a base plate optionally inclined downward, which is connected to two mutually opposite side walls and a side wall connecting them, there being a gap between at least one of the side walls of the shaft and the deflection plate, and the outlet opening being located between the base plate and the lower end of at least one side wall, the base plate being directly arranged vertically below the gap between the side wall and the deflection plate directly neighboring the base plate and arranged vertically over it, characterized in that a distributor device is arranged between the inlet opening and the first deflection plate inside the shaft, as seen from the inlet opening in the vertical direction, comprising at least two downwardly inclined distributor plates which are inclined downward so that, for the angles measured in the same direction between a horizontal plane and the distributor plates, for a pair of directly neighboring distributor plates one of the distributor plates makes an obtuse angle with the horizontal plane and the other of the distributor plates makes an acute angle with the horizontal plane, and wherein each of the distributor plates - as seen from its higher-lying end in the direction of its lower-lying end -extends in the direction of one of the side edges, optionally with a profile inclined downward, of the deflection plate directly arranged vertically below it.
The method according to the invention can be carried out with the delivery chute according to the invention.
The shaft of the delivery chute according to the invention is delimited by side walls and has an inlet opening and an outlet opening. The sinter material is introduced through the inlet opening, and it is discharged through the outlet opening.
At least one deflection plate is arranged inside the shaft. It is connected to two mutually opposite side walls of the shaft, and to a side wall connecting the two side walls. The lateral edges of the deflection plate, which respectively extend along the shaft's two mutually opposite side walls to which the deflection plate is connected, are referred to as side edges of the deflection plate. The deflection plate is preferably arranged inclined, and specifically inclined downward. In this case the lateral edges of the deflection plate as seen from the higher-lying end in the direction of its lower-lying end, which are referred to as side edges, extend with an inclination downward.
Alternatively, however, the deflection plate may be arranged without an inclination, i.e. in a horizontal plane. Between at least one of the side walls of the shaft and the deflection plate, there is a gap through which the sinter material contained in the delivery chute can move following the force of gravity downward in the direction of the outlet opening. This gap is preferably located at the lower-lying end of the deflection plate, for example between the lower-lying end of the deflection plate and the side wall which lies opposite the side wall connected to the higher-lying end of the deflection plate. If the deflection plate is not inclined, the gap is preferably located between the deflection plate's end not connected to a side wall of the shaft and the side wall lying opposite this end.
The outlet opening lies between the base plate and the lower end of at least one side wall. The base plate is connected to two mutually opposite side walls and a side wall connecting them. The base plate is directly arranged vertically below the gap between the side wall and the deflection plate directly neighboring the base plate and arranged vertically over the base plate. The base plate is preferably arranged inclined, and specifically inclined downward. If both the base plate and the deflection plate are inclined, the base plate is inclined in a different direction to the deflection plate. The outlet opening does not lie vertically, as seen from the inlet opening, directly below the gap between the side wall and the deflection plate directly neighboring the base plate and arranged vertically over the base plate.
In this way, the movement direction of the sinter material total flow is again changed at least once by the base plate after passing through the gap, before it emerges from the delivery chute through the outlet opening.
Irrespective of whether the deflection plate and/or base plate are inclined or not inclined, the method according to the invention proceeds in the same way since, on a non-inclined deflection plate and/or base plate, a pile of material is formed whose surface is inclined as a function of the resting angle of the sinter material. The sinter material total flow thus also flows obliquely downward along this surface in the case of a non-inclined deflection plate and/or base plate, as it does in the case of an inclined deflection plate and/or base plate.
According to the invention, a distributor device is arranged inside the shaft between the inlet opening and the first deflection plate inside the shaft, as seen from the inlet opening. It comprises at least two downwardly inclined distributor plates. The distributor plates are inclined downward so that, for the angle between a horizontal plane and a distributor plate, for a pair of directly neighboring distributor plates one of the distributor plates makes an obtuse angle with the horizontal plane and the other of the distributor plates makes an acute angle with the horizontal plane. The angles between the horizontal plane and the distributor plates are in this case measured in the same direction. The individual distributor plates or all the distributor plates are preferably connected to a side wall of the shaft at their higher-lying end and extend - as seen from its higher-lying end in the direction of their lower-lying end - in the direction of one of the side edges, preferably with a profile inclined downward, of the deflection plate directly arranged vertically below it.
The deflection plates may have the same width everywhere over their lengthwise extent from their upper end to their lower end, or they may become narrower toward the lower end.
Preferably, the vertical projections of the distributor plates onto a horizontal plane lie inside the perpendicular projection of the first deflection plate, as seen from the inlet opening, onto the same horizontal plane.
The distributor plates are thus not arranged over the gap between the deflection plate and the side wall. This ensures that incoming sinter material cannot be discharged from the delivery chute without deflection by the distributor plates.
According to one embodiment, the distributor plates are inclined downward to the same extent. This means that the magnitudes of the angles, by which the longitudinal axes of the distributor plates are inclined downward relative to the horizontal, are the same. They may however also be inclined downward to a different extent, in which case the angle of inclination may differ by up to 15 , for instance 5 , 100. The angle actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
Neighboring distributor plates are inclined in different directions. According to a preferred embodiment, for a pair of directly neighboring distributor plates, the two distributor plates of the pair are inclined in mutually opposite directions. This means that in relation to a reference point, the right-hand end of one distributor plate lies higher than its left-hand end, i.e. the distributor plate is inclined downward from right to left. A directly neighboring distributor plate has a left-hand end lying higher, so that it is inclined downward from left to right. The two distributor plates of the pair are then inclined in mutually opposite directions.
It is preferable for the higher-lying ends of the distributor plates to lie at the same position with respect to the vertical lengthwise extent of the shaft. They may, however, also be located at different positions with respect to the vertical lengthwise extent of the shaft. The position actually selected depends inter alia on the horizontally measured distance to the inlet opening from the outlet opening, as well as the overall height of the delivery chute.
The relationships indicated in the method according to the invention between the horizontal principal components of the subflow flow-direction vectors and the horizontal principal component of the total flow flow-direction vector apply at least so long as the total flow lies on the first deflection plate in the vertical direction, as seen from the inlet opening.
The present invention will be explained below with the aid of a schematic figure of an exemplary embodiment.
Figure 1 shows an oblique view of a longitudinal section through a delivery chute according to the invention.
The shaft of the delivery chute is delimited by side walls la, lb, the side wall lc consisting of the parts lc' and lc", and a further side wall which is not represented owing to the longitudinal section and extends parallel to the side wall lb.
For better clarity, the side wall lb is shaded. The inlet opening 2 is provided at the top, and an outlet opening 3 is provided at the bottom. The inlet opening is bounded by bounding plates 4a, 4b, 4c starting from the side walls, and a further bounding plate which is not represented owing to the longitudinal section. The deflection plate 5 is arranged inside the shaft. It is inclined downward and connected to the side wall lb, the side wall (not shown) parallel to lb, and the parts lc' and lc". The lateral edges of the deflection plate as seen from the higher-lying end of the deflection plate in the direction of its lower-lying end, which are referred to as side edges, of the deflection plate extend with an inclination downward. Between the side wall la and the deflection plate 5, there is a gap. A base plate 6 is arranged directly below the gap vertically. The base plate 6 is inclined downward, the direction of the inclination of the base plate 6 differing from the direction of the inclination of the deflection plate 5;
while the base plate 6 represented in Figure 1 is inclined downward from right to left, the deflection plate 5 is inclined downward from left to right. The base plate is connected to the side wall lb, the side wall (not shown) parallel to lb, and the side wall la. The outlet opening 3 is located between the lower end of the part lc" of the side wall lc and the base plate 6.
A distributor device, comprising the two directly neighboring distributor plates 7a and 7b, is arranged between the inlet opening 2 and the deflection plate 5. The two distributor plates 7a and 7b are inclined downward. They become narrower toward their lower-lying end, as can be seen for the distributor plate 7b. The distributor plates 7a and 7b are inclined in different directions to one another, namely in mutually opposite directions. The two distributor plates 7a and 7b are inclined downward to the same extent. With a horizontal plane, for example passing through the distributor opening, the distributor plate 7a with a corresponding direction of the angle measurement makes an acute angle, while the distributor plate 7b with the same direction of the angle measurement makes an obtuse angle with the same horizontal plane. The distributor plate ,7b is connected to the side wall lb by its higher-lying end, while the distributor plate 7a is connected to the side wall (not shown) parallel thereto by its higher-lying end. Each of the distributor plates extends in the direction of one of the side edges, extending with a downward inclination, of the deflection plate 5. The distributor plate 7a extends in the direction of the side edge which neighbors the side wall lb, and the distributor plate 7b extends in the direction of the other side edge of the deflection plate 5. The distributor plates 7a and 7b are arranged so that their perpendicular projections onto a horizontal plane lie inside the perpendicular projections of the deflection plate 5 onto the same horizontal plane. The distributor plates 7a and 7b do not directly lie vertically over the gap between the deflection plate 5 and the side wall la.
Sinter material introduced into the delivery chute is divided by the two distributor plates 7a and 7b into two sinter material subflows which the flow with flow directions dictated by the distributor plates 7a and 7b in the direction of the side edges of the deflection plate. The sinter material subf lows leaving the distributor plates 7a and 7b are combined into a sinter material total flow, which flows down the deflection plate 5. The horizontal principal components of the total flow flow vector and the subflow flow-direction vectors are mutually perpendicular. A reversed flow direction is subsequently imparted to the sinter material total flow by the base plate, before the sinter material is delivered through the outlet opening 3 onto the sinter cooler (not shown).
